dittybopper:birdmanesq: The real question now is whether this will stay a Zimmerman thread, turn into a gun porn thread, turn into a misogyny thread, turn into an Obama-derp thread or turn into a food thread.

If this had been an actual Zimmerman emergency, you would have been instructed where to tune in your area for news and official information about how to declare that the victim was asking for it.

It's a cat thread now.

DAMMIT. Cats. I knew I forgot something.

I was going to say thinly-veiled racism, but I suppose Obama-derp sort of covers that.

JerseyTim:Sorry, libs, but I'm pretty sure that's not illegal in Florida. It's considered rude if you don't wave a gun at someone in an argument.

I love this comment so hard.

Also: I'm going to force myself to reserve judgment because (1) divorce is a messy thing and (2) Shelly came off as kinda crazy when that whole "legal financing" flap was going on, even though I know how common domestic violence like TFA described is.

I guess they tricked him into punching her father in the nose in front of a witness also

And you know what? I'm totally cool with that.

Why? So you can feel good about what you've been imagining happened for over a year?
